1. Note that I have uploaded "version C" of the Nils Exercises and Lecture Notes 2012; print it out for your convenience. It now comprises 25 exercises on 34 pages.

2. The curriculum is as follows. From B.P. Carlin and T.A. Louis, "Bayesian Methods for Data Analysis" (3rd Edition, 2009):

Ch 1: All.

Ch 2: Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, then 2.4.1.

Ch 3: Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, then 3.4.1-3.4.2.

Ch 4: Section 4.1.

Ch 5: Sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.6, 5.7.

Ch 7: Sections 7.1.1 and 7.3 are "cursory curriculum".

Appendix B.1.

All exercises discussed during the course are also to be considered part of the curriculum, including earlier exam projects; cf. also Nils Lid Hjort's "Exercises and Lecture Notes" (version C). Note also that some exercises may be seen as `alternative versions' of some of the material in the book; this is e.g. the case for Exercises 22-23 for the inverse-gamma-normal type calculus and Exercises 24-25 vis-a-vis the relevant sections of Ch 5.
